The heart of Astoria on
Steinway Street is home to a
plethora of interesting restaurants,
coffee shops and hookah
bars, and Le Luxe Beautique is
joining the scene as the area’s
newest business.
Jan. 15 marked the grand
opening of the sleek salon,
which featured a DJ, refreshments
and giveaways. Since
then, Le Luxe Beautique has
been a one-stop shop for clients’
beauty needs, complete
with tons of glamour and a
classic, clean look. The salon
offers a range of services, including
lash extensions, brow
shaping and tinting, blowouts
and full-service makeup.
“I wanted to do a combination
of different services
in one place,” said Elizabeth
Jeanty, the salon’s owner. “As
a mom of two, I know how hard
it is to scramble to get a day
for yourself, so it’s like, you
come in, you get everything
done and you’re out the door.”
According to Jeanty, many
clients book multiple services
at once and get to relax in the
salon while watching whatever
movie or TV show the salon
is playing that day. Jeanty said
that the salon’s liquor license
is in the process of being approved
this year and customers
will soon be able to enjoy a
glass of champagne while they
wait.
Le Luxe has a plush couch
in the waiting area, rows of
curved lash beds for getting
eyelash extensions and an elegant
flower wall that guests
can pose in front of at the end
of their salon visit.
For years, Jeanty, who originally
grew up nearby in the
Jackson Heights area, worked
as a freelance makeup artist,
so the beauty industry was always
one of her passions. Over
time, her passion developed
into a dream to have her own
salon and when the opportunity
to open up shop on Steinway
Street came up, she knew she
had to take it.
“I knew I wanted to be in
Astoria,” Jeanty said. “It’s
great for traffic. It’s so diverse
and you meet different
people. In Jackson Heights
where I grew up, it’s the same
thing. It’s a melting pot of so
many different ethnicities
and people — I love that.”
All of the staff at Le Luxe
Beautique — from the salon’s
lash technician to its hairstylist
— emphasize attention to
detail and create a glamorous
experience that makes a trip
to the salon feel like a quick
getaway instead of a chore.
“I hope to bring something
entirely different than what’s
in the area,” Jeanty said. “I
want it to be a high-end salon,
where people feel comfortable,
they enjoy the whole experience
of being here and they’re
100% satisfied as a customer;
that’s really important to me.”
Le Luxe Beautique is located
at 25-73 Steinway St., Astoria.
